ABU DHABI – UFC 294 open workouts took place Wednesday inside of Yas Mall, and MMA Junkie was on scene for the festivities.
Participating in the open workouts were lightweight champion Islam Makhachev, featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski, Khamzat Chimaev, and former welterweight champ Kamaru Usman. During Usman’s open workout, Justin Gaethje, who was his partner, can be heard asking Usman “you all right?” as they landed on the mat following a slam. It’s unclear what Usman’s response was or if he was seriously injured. They ended the grappling portion of the workout right after the slam, and Usman continued with some striking.He said I’m good or something like that. I thought he hit his head on the mat.
